As of July, 2009 he is in the College Football Hall of Fame but not the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Rice was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 2006. The Pro Football Hall of Fame requires a player to be retired for at least five seasons before being eligible to be elected. Rice's final season in the NFL was 2004. He certainly will be elected in his first season of eligibility which will be 2010. He has been elected to the hall of fame as of Feb. 6th 2009 and will be inducted in 2010.
